didn't Target also carry exclusive sets? (at least they did a few years ago)


Yes they used to get them before TRU and early on they were the only ones to get some of them.

I'm still kicking myself for not getting that safari set, as now I have to pay evilbay prices for it. It has the old style tree in it that I would love to have a few of, plus I could use that baseplate.

I like the jeep as it does not have some "ZOO" decal printed on it. I have never seen the leafless tree. Not a bad little set and I bet the price at Costco was reasonable. I better keep a lookout for used ones now

that baseplate has too little water for so many animals!!
Very true! But I want it as an island for my gorillas. It's the same baseplate as a discontinued add-on for the train sets. I kept putting off getting it, and now I missed it. :-\

There's literally hundreds of new ones on ebay, it seems, but at twice the price costco had it for. :hmm:

Stopped by TRU today and my store had the bus and ambulance. My 11 month old really liked the bus! Both were $19.99 and I came so close to buying the bus, especially with the 20% off.

Now I feel like buying the school, the bus, the gym,....geez, does it ever stop? ::)

I am finding it hard to resit a few things myself!  I am trying to find the hospital there, or the new police station...and a lot of other things actually.  I've walked around the store with a few sets I was only mildly interested in a few times, only to talk myself out of them at the last minute.  I'm an addict.  It's official.

It still doesn't show on their website, strange. But that's great news! I'll be on the lookout for it, all you who are waiting for them! :lol:

They had only 2 buses and 1 ambulance if I remember correctly...unless they had more unpacked in the back. This store does such a poor job at selling Playmobil. I found some sets way out of reach and sight, above the shelves of different areas in the store. ::)
